April acquisitions

[Drcharles]

Shaving stuff for April and very probably the rest of the year. All quite cheap but it satisfies my curiosity about some of the soaps I wanted.

I had an interesting hour in an antique shop today and managed three buys.

This Cussons Imperial Leather was part of a travel set with a Wardonia razor.

Do you think you will use it for a shave ?

Not sure yet, but not ruling it out.

I also picked this up for £15. Will definitely give this a try at some point.

I was having a browse yesterday in my local tkmaxx store and came across this in the mens toiletries sale section for £.4.50p, so as a easter treat to myself...I didn't really need it, but for that price i couldn't resist......I'll be giving it's maiden outing at the weekend.

Mail called... Palmira Serbia shaving soap 70 grams each very very cheap to get from eBay.

The soap is very soft easy to press into a 250ml tub and the scent smell very much like Cella shaving soap

Thank you, Superdrug.

I picked up a few of the Palmolive sticks from Wilko a few days ago and today the Vicco shaving cream from an Indian food shop, that also sold Alum blocks for £1!

Ginger's Garden Almond aftershave. It smells great.

Mail called, the Gillette Red Tip 1950's made in England has arrived, finally at last for nearly three years of searching is over, IF, I find another English Red Tip I'll grab it again.

Here's another photo to see the difference from English Red Tip on the left vs the US Red Tip on the right, see the bottom of the turning dial closely to see the difference and I'm told that the English 0.81mm is more aggressive than the US 0.66mm

A little run around today, on route to visit @Electrif I popped into PO Depot. Jackpot, all paid up so they handed over the package. A great visit with a fellow shaver and forum member to pick up another razor. Thanks again Arthur for the added extras and samples.

Thanks for a very nice and informative visit Arthur.
Well done Post Office lad for having a rake to find my package.
